I love Clarks boots. I have 4 pr. in different colors of the Desert Trek so when I saw these, I had to get a pair. I was not disappointed. I've had them for about a month now and they feel nicely broken in. Now I have to resist the temptation to buy another pair! A style note: even though the soles are the same material as the Desert Trek, they feel a bit more substantial and even a little clunky--but nothing to distract from buying them--just a difference. Also on the soles, they are crepe, and things you should know are: don't step in gas or oily places--you won't be able to get it off, and do not pack them sole-to-sole as they can stick together. Both things can ruin the shoe I know because I've recently replaced the soles on my oldest pair and it was difficult to find someone that can or will work on them. Thankfully there was someone in my immediate area. I wouldn't trade them for anything--and have since bought more Clarks but I wished I'd known before so I could take better care. A sizing note: they have a different, less full toe, than the Desert Trek. You'll want to go up a half of size. Of course Zappos was great with the exchange.

I really wish Clarks made this shoe in a wide width. I love the "chukka" look and decided to try these (size 7, med. width) even though I normally wear a WW or EE width. I hoped they'd have enough give to accommodate my bunions. Wrong! I couldn't even get my foot inside the shoe, so they're going back. I even ordered a men's size 6 to compare, thinking that it would be wider; it was but was too long and just not a good fit for my wide foot, so they'll be going back too. So disappointing- this is really a good-looking boot, and I wish the folks at Clarks would realize how much of the market they're missing by catering only to people with narrow feet.

These are great with jeans when shoes are not enough and regular boots are too much! I waterproofed mine with mink oil and they get softer each time I wear them. The only drawback is not much arch support.

I love these shoes! I have had so many pleasant comments on these since I got them; they are sure to get compliments. They're super comfortable and great with skinny jeans or a knee-length skirt. They have a nice little heel cushion but are generally flat (which is fine for me). True to size.

These are just straight up cool shoes - paired with skinny jeans or cigarette pants, an anorak and Vespa and you are back in 1960's London. On the more practical side, no, they do not have arch support (and I have really high arches) but they are roomy enough that I can use my own supports. And, now all my friends want these shoes too.

I had a hard time deciding whether to buy these due to their high cost. But they are well worth it. I walk everywhere, and these shoes are very comfortable, they are roomy in the toe area and dependable in any weather. They have excellent construction and quality materials. They are highly recommend!

I have always loved the look of these desert boots and finally got them! They are very stiff at first (signs of quality leather) and there is no real padding or arch support on the insole at all, but I plan on adding my own insert. I wear them with little socks and my jeans rolled up. Very much in the "boyfriend" style. I wear a 7 or 7.5 depending on the shoe, and have narrow feet. Went with the 7 and they fit great. I would be swimming the 7.5 for sure.

Clarks shoes are just terrific. These desert boots take some time to break in but are as sturdy and comfortable as you'd expect from Clarks.

I love these boots! I got them when this color was on sale and was a little unsure about it. They go with everything! Looks amazing with black tights and a mini skirt or socks and jeans. They take a little breaking in and are a bit stiff at first. They look very flimsy, but have held up under a lot of wear. On my feet the laces could tighten a little closer, but it's no big deal. They are so fun!

I love the shoes. They send me back to the 70's! they do need a couple of wears to soften up but they are comfortable, fit true to size, and are well made. The only thing I can say is that they could benefit with better shoelaces. Zappos provides awesome customer service as well so ordering anything is fun!

This is a throw back boot. I wore desert boots in the 70's. This boot looks and feels exactly the same. Clark's is a good product that always wears well. I like it a lot!

Love the look of these shoes. They start out a little stiff, so wear thick socks around the ankles until the leather loosens up some. Very comfortable despite no arch, because the rubber sole absorbs the shock of walking. Look great with jeans/slacks. Mine are the beeswax brown, and I had purchased taupe suede, but will send them back because the colors are almost identical.
